    Welcome to the STL! There are a bunch of members from this area, just keep an eye out. Search for the Bombers car club on here. Do you guys race at Pevely or just build?

    i think someone needs to have a big STL/ILL hamb party. Maybe not quite as 'rockstar-esque' as a bill beirman party, but ya know a place to talk cars and get drunk.

    You'll want to visit a little town called Pevely MO in the spring. Therein you'll find Ken Schrader's I-55 speedway (if you're into open wheel dirt stuff, you've already heard of it or maybe even been there). Very nice little dirt oval, maybe 3/8ths mile, it's pretty short. What it lacks in length it makes up for in width, banking, and expert prep.

    I've been a few times, last time I went down there to watch a Sprint show four or five years ago on one of their "Open Wheel Wednesdays". Good show as usual. I've always wanted to run my modified down there, but them UMP boys have way deeper pockets than yours truly here can afford to match. They put on a helluva show though.

    I'm not in St Louis, about two hours down I-44 to your southwest in a dinky little town called Belle. Welcome to Missouri, you'll get used to the smell . . . . . .

    I kid, I kid. :D

    That would be the Bomber Motor Club...The Bombers Car Club is a bit further North in Peoria IL. The BMC hosts shows during the summer that have great turn outs. We have a party planned tonight in Peoria with the Afterdarks and DJ Tommy. See the calendar for details.

    Welcome to St. Louis! Yes we put on shows during the summer, all pre -'65 stuff etc. etc. Our first get together will be May 3rd. We will have it as usual at Chuck-A-Burger on St. Charles Rock Rd.(see link below) This is just a chance to hang out, a no frills type of "show". Our biggershow the BOMB RUN will be Sept. 13th. Do not miss this one. Other than that we can usually be found motoring about town hitting other shows and looking for a Rumble;):D.

    Link to our last show pics...
